E. 1998: Boreal Olethreutini 1. (Lepidoptera, Tortrici­ dae): New Synonymies and Holarctic Records.- Entomol. Fennica 9: 137-142. We examined specimens of selected boreal palaearctic and nearctic taxa of Tortricidae to ascertain whether they might be holarctic conspecifics. Our findings confirm one putative synonymy: Tia enervana (Erschoff, 1877) = Argyroploce vulgana McDunnough, 1922, support four new synonymies: Olethreutes aquilonanus (Karvonen, 1932) = 0. kononenkoi Kuznetsov, 1991, 0. heinrichanus (McDunnough, 1927) = 0. hyperboreanus (Karvonen, 1932), 0 . turfosanus (Herrich-Schaffer, 1851) = 0 . intermistanus (Clemens, 1865), 0. septentrionanus (Curtis, 1835) = 0. schaefferanus (Herrich-Schiiffer, 1851) and resurrect one name from synonymy: the nearctic 0. kennethanus McDun­ nough, 1941 is not conspecific with the palaearctic 0. obsoletanus (Zetterstedt, 1840). Through synonymies and records, seven species are new for the Nearctic, and ten are considered holarctic. These results increase the percentage of holarctic Beringian tortricid species from 48 to 61.

C. AT 75 CENTS PER COPY — ADVERTISEMENT The scientific publications of the National Museum consist of two series Proceedings and Bulletins. The Proceedings, the first volume of which was issued in 1878, are intended primarily as a medium for the publication of original papers based on the collections of the National Museum, setting forth newly acquired facts in biology, anthropology, and geology derived therefrom, or containing descriptions of new forms and revisions of limited groups. One or two volumes are completed annually and copies of each paper, in pamphlet form, are dis- tributed as soon as published to libraries and scientific organizations and to specialists and others interested in the different subjects. The dates at which these separate papers are published are recorded in the table of contents of the volume. The Bulletins^ the first of which was issued in 1875, consist of a series of separate organizations comprising chiefly monographs of large zoological groups and other general systematic treatises (occa- sionally in several volumes), faunal works, reports of expeditions, and catalogues of type specimens, special collections, etc. The majority of the volumes are octavos, but a quarto size has been adopted in a few instances in which large plates were regarded as indispensable.

We provide photographs of wings and genitalia of the Holarctic Tia enervana (Erschoff), Olethreutes aquilonanus (Karvonen), O. heinrichanus (McDunnaugh), 0. concretanus (Wocke), 0. nordegganus (McDunnough), and the Nearctic O. mengelanus (Fernald), O. cos­ timaculanus (Fernald), and O. bowmananus (McDunnough).

We present new Nearctic distribution records for O. heinrichanus and O. bowmananus, and the first Palaearctic records far 0. nordegganus, which establish it as Holarctic. Recent discoveries change to 63% the Beringian tortricids that are also Holaretie. Additional key words: Holaretic, Nearctic, Palaearctic.

Editors in charge: Monika Eberhard & Klaus-Dieter Klass Abstract Recent studies have shown that wing pattern in various lineages of microlepidoptera follows one of two predictive models. In the first, called the “alternating wing-margin” model, dark and light pattern elements straddle alternating veins along the costal margin of the wing. In the second, called the “uniform wing-margin” model, pattern elements of a single color straddle all veins along the costa. However, of the dozens of families and superfamilies of moths, a small minority have been studied in this context. In the present contribution, the relationship between wing pattern and wing venation is examined in Lichenaula Meyrick, 1890 (Gelechioidea: Xyloryctidae).

The boreo-alpine tortricid moth Argyroploce arbutella (Linnaeus, 1758) seems to be a characteristic cold-adapted species associated with dry stony and rocky treeless habitats. The host plant is usually Arctostaphylos uva-ursi (L.), which does not occur on peatbogs. In the Sumava Mts. (SW Bohemia, Czech Republic), an isolated but abundant A. arbutella population was discovered in a montane peatbog Chalupskâ slat Nature Reserve near Borovâ Lada, at an altitude of 930 m. The only local host plant is Vaccinium vitis-idaea (L.), associated with the treeless central parts of the bog ecosystem. Adults are diurnal and heliophilous, flying from June to August. This Sumava bog population is unique in the Czech Republic. The nearest Austrian and German populations of A. arbutella are recorded from the montane rocky and scree communities with Arctostaphylos only. There are no other records of a tyrphophilous association of A. arbutella with peatlands.

  • Immigrant Tortricidae: Holarctic Versus Introduced Species in North America

A large number of tortricid species have been inadvertently introduced into North America from Eurasia, and many have the potential to inflict considerable negative economic and ecological impacts. Because native species behave differently than introduced species, it is critical to distinguish between the two. Unfortunately, this can be a difficult task. In the past, many tortricids discovered in North America were assumed to be the same as their Eurasian counterparts, i.e., Holarctic. Using DNA sequence data, morphological characters, food plants, and historical records, we analyzed the origin of 151 species of Tortricidae present in North America. The results indicate that the number of Holarctic species has been overestimated by at least 20%. We also determined that the number of introduced tortricids in North America is unexpectedly high compared other families, with tortricids accounting for approximately 23–30% of the total number of moth and butterfly species introduced to North America.

  • Intressanta Fynd Av Fjiiltfjflrilar I Sverige 1998
    Intressanta fynd av fjiiltfjflrilar i Sverige 1998 NILS RYRHOLM & ANDERS OHLSSON Ryrholm, N. & Ohlsson, A.: Intressanta fynd av fjallfjiirilar i Sverige 1998. [Interesting records of Lepidoptera in the taiga- and tundra regions of Sweden 1998.1 - Ent. Tidskr. l2O (l-2):43-53. Lund, Sweden 1999. ISSN 0013-886x. This is the fifth report on interesting finds and events from the Swedish mountain range and adjacent areas that are generally not reported in the national lists for Micro- and Macrolepi- doptera. Despite the mostly unfavourable weather, with the exception for a relatively warm period in the very north during the first three weeks ofJuly, a large number of species has been observed during 1998. Some species, such as Metaxmeste schrankiana, Loxostege ephippialis, Pyrgus centaureae, Colias nastes, Pieris napi, Clossianafreija, C. frigga, Eu- phydryas iduna, Erebia pandrose, Caloplusia hochenwarthi, Sympistis heliophila, Anarta melanopa, Xestia lyngei, X. tecta, X. alpicola and X. lorezi, have appeared in higher, or even much higher, numbers than normal. Also taiga forest species, such as Xesrla Laetabilis, X. distensa, X. speciosa andX. rhaetica, were more abundant than during an average year. Presumably this is due to the mainly favourable weather during previous years. Among the more remarkable finds were: Depressaria leucocephala, Coleophora paeltsaella (n sp.), Ptycera petasitis, Gnorimoschema valesiella, G. herbichi, G. nordlandicolella, Diasemia reticulais, Clossiana polaris ald Xestia borealis. Other remarkable finds were: Olethreu- tes boisduvaliana, which was found for the first time in Sweden for more than 20 years; Acerbia alpina which also this year was found in large numbers on NissuntjflLrro and last, but not least, Xestia atrata, which was re-found in Hiirjedalen - this was the third record in Sweden and the fourth in Europe.
